When I was younger, my ideal marrying age was 30.
Right about that time, I met this gorgeous girl.
We became inseparable and made such a cute couple. Everyone thought we were perfect for one another.
But like most fairy tales, that relationship did not last.
Looking back, I did love her. In fact, I wanted to marry her. At the time, I could see myself walking down the altar with her.
Then reality bit me in the ass.
Raft3r is now over 30 and no longer wishes to marry.
I may still change my mind, though. But I can't take back the years.

If it's not meant to be, then, it's not meant to be. Never live your life with regrets. You are still young(because we are the same age) and greater things will come your way.(Do I sound like a greeting card?)

Wow, parang may idea ako kung sino ito ah, hehe. But of course, I may be wrong pa rin. (,") Ikaw, not the marrying type? You just haven't found her yet, or you've found her na but you wouldn't want to let me know about it yet, hahaha.
Don't look back at the years. What's important is the wisdom and lessons you've learned over the years, right? (,") See you soon!

st_leobinus, Well said. Hehe

there is nothing wrong with wishing not to marry. in fact i think it is the perfect thing in the world... until you get sick and grow old alone. LOL

prinsesamusang, Nyahaha. Who wants that, right?

-> You got that right, buddy boy, we're getting old. On my part, dumadami na uban ko. Nasobrahan yata ng dedikasyon sa trabaho, wala namang salary increase, ewan ko ba. Hindi ko na tuloy ma-update yung walang kwentang blog ko. :P
Raft3r
Said
andy briones, Hehe. Do the Jodie Foster post na kasi!
Andy Briones
Said
Gabundok yung trabaho ko, kaya hindi ko matapos-tapos yung mga pending posts ko; hirap manilbihan. Parang gusto ko na tuloy tumaya ng lotto para hindi ko na kailangan magpaka-alila sa opisina.
Baka pala tungkol kay Jodie at Anthony Hopkins (Silence of the Lambs) yung gawin ko. Hindi ko alam kung kelan ko matatapos ito, ehehe.

andy briones, She's directing a new movie!!! Work kills. Kaya ingat. Hehe

Baka di mo pa lang sya nahanap. Pero hindi masama if you choose to stay single forever. Kaya lang, you'll be alone and lonely when the time comes. TRemember, the pamangkins won't always be there.
Maybe you can do an agreement with you girl friend, mala My Best Friend's Wedding. Kahit for partnership's sake lang, so you have someone to grow old with.
Anyhoot, wala namang "expiration date" ang mga lalaki, eh. Hahaha!

Di mo pa lang talaga nahahanap. When you finally meet her, baka ikaw pa ang magmadali sa pagpapakasal, hahaha.

ah over 30 ka na... akala ko nasa late 30s ka pa lang.(",)
hmmm wala ako ma-comment sa love life na 'yan at kasal... bata pa ako, di ko pa naiisip yang mga yan. hehehe
kaya gusto ko na lang mag-imagine e, kasi yung reality nangangagat ng ass. so scary!
mabuhay and be happy! wala bang pa-3 in 1 plus 1 dyan?

Sayang ang miles, este, ang genes! nyhahaha
Seriously now, may be you haven't found the right girl yet. At the same time, tatlo naman ang vocation sa mundo -- single blessedness, married life at celibacy. Whatever category you fall into, live life. :p
liza sweetie
Said
sweetie! did you get my text nung 14? i didnt 4get your bday ha..hehe..di ka lang sagot so i thought wala ka dito..anyway, i hope you had fun! let's enjoy being single :)

*high fives raft3r*
they say you should never say never but when something whose moment already passed...ang hirap na i-duplicate ulit nung hope.
naks, may ganun?!
Raft3r
Said
hitokirihoshi_kawaii, Tapos na ang 3 in 1 plus 1 natin! Hehe
len, Bakit kelangan may celibacy? Nyahaha
liza sweetie, Yes. I got your text. Tama ang hinala mo. Hehe
judayski, Para san ang hope? Nyahaha
Wendy
Said
Mahirap magsalita ng tapos eh. Baka kainin mo rin yan sa bandang huli pag nakita mo ang "the one." Hopefully, the right one yun, not the left one. Hehe, parang tsinelas.
Raft3r
Said
wendy, May disclaimer naman ako sa huli. Hehe
Beth
Said
Bisaja is right. Wla nman expiration date ang mga guys so don't rush. :)
And don't ever marry just for the sake of it. I know you will find the right one for you. For the meantime, leave missus behind first because no girl in her right mind notices someone who's already "married". :)
Take care!!!
Raft3r
Said
beth, Nyahaha. Thanks. Believe me. I am in NO rush. I LOVE being unattached.

Said
Malay mo naman maisipan mo biglang magpari later on. nyahahaha
Suntok sa buwan ba? hehehe
Raft3r
Said
len, Masyado akong makasalan para mag-pari. Hehe
laieesha
Said
i get what you mean... who wouldn't want to play the field, right?? hehe but eventually, it'll be lonely and you will settle.
contrary to what judayski said, i think you can definitely duplicate the hope. hey, i was with someone for 7 years, on the verge of getting married, until I got tired and said, "OK, BYE!" i haven't lost hope. i KNOW it will happen but im in no rush to get there.
there's no rule or law out there that says you HAVE to get married at a certain time or age. im totally taking my time. there's nothing wrong if you do the same. 30's is the new 20's, di ba??
Raft3r
Said
laieesha, Tama yan! Hehe
